- Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage.
- You should be able to get four cabbage steaks from a medium to large head.
- Keep the core on the cabbage as you slice. This will help to keep the leaves in tact.
- Some outer cabbage leaves may fall off while searing. Easily, rearrange them around the cabbage in the baking pan.
- For the sausage, use three links with the casings removed, or the equivalent in ground.
- Easily replace the hot Italian sausage with ground beef, ground chicken, ground turkey, or a meat alternative.
- For a vegetarian version of this Cabbage Parmesan, use a tomato-based sauce.
